(Closed) ANYONE WEAR(ING) LAZARO 3762, I NEED HELP!

So I found the dress of my dreams at Kleinfeld’s, of course way over priced. The dress as I tried it on had plenty of length (I am 5’7). I was able to find the dress for cheaper at a different bridal boutique and decided to order it there. The girl at the boutique indicated that the Lazaro standard length wedding dress is for a 5’7 girl in a 2 inch heel. She said that since I had already tried the dress on and knew the length was OK, there was no reason to order the extra length.I just got off the phone with the boutique and the lady I spoke with today said that the dress is actually fit for a 5’7 girl in a ballet flat or kitten heel. (!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Has anyone out there ordered a Lazaro or has worn a Lazaro and could shed some light on the length situation. I’ve put a call into Kleinfeld’s to see if they could find out if the dress that I tried on was the regular sample size or if it had extra length on it. I have a feeling they have you order the extra length so they can nail you on the alterations, but I could be wrong.

I’m 5’3″, got measured for my Lazaro with 2-3 inch heels and the dress was still waaaay to long, so they ordered special shorter length for me. If you search my dress posts you can see me standing on a tall podium and the dress draping over the whole thing. They told me the dress was made for a 5’9″ girl but I don’t know about heels.

KLP2010– I called the manufacturer to see if they could tell me what the approximate lengths are of the Lazaro 3762 dress and she wouldn’t give me any information, put me on hold and then transferred me to the bridal boutique where I purchased the dress! Ugh so frustrating!

meliss– Thanks. Was your dress also style 3762? I am going check the pics out now. 5’9 makes sense, a 5’7 girl in a 2 inch heel but a dress made only for those 5’7 and shorter? that just doesn’t seem right to me!

My dress was from the fall 2010 collection so not advertised yet, but I tried on 4 different Lazaro trumpet dresses and they were all the same length. I have the size chart they gave me from the store at home so I can check tonight. One thing I know for sure is that the size chart was for all Lazaro dresses, not style specific. I don’t think you have anything to worry, the standard length should be just fine.

In fact now that I think about it, it was Lazaro himself that told me the dresses were made for 5’9″ girls. I bought the dress at a trunk show and was asking him if the bodice should be shortened for my petite frame (he agreed it should).

I found the size chart. Hollow to hem measurement depends on the size. Ex: Size 6 is 59.5″, size 8 is 59.75″, and keeps increasing at 0.25″ increments. Mine was ordered special at 57″ (I’m 5’3″ plus 2-3 inch heels) and I think that still included some extra to be hemmed later, in case I decide on longer shoes.
